Send ProFlowers, Send Disappointment
I am astonished that ProFlowers delivers their products to sick patients confined to hospital beds. The patient must await someone with a knife or box cutter to open the pasteboard container, and scissors and water to arrange the mediocre flower bud stems. Call a real florist who takes pride in cheering up the sick.
In fact, sending ProFlowers 'Get Well Wishes' is just as disappointing to a sick person at home, especially someone confined to bed or in a sling or cast. I speak my opinion as I have received ProFlowers in both situations above mentioned.
Here is a 2011 'testimonial' to ProFlowers on sending Romantic Greetings to someone you love: Great way to ship a cardboard box to the one you love! He describes spending $80.00 at ProFlowers, which would more than cover very decent, hand-arranged, personally-delivered flowers from a real, local florist. He wrote:
Send ProFlowers only to those who know flower-arranging, and who love a challenge. There are a large number of national florists who will deliver professionally arranged flowers from your local florist, ready for the recipient to immediately enjoy. If you cannot afford that, then send a lovely card instead. Don't disappoint your recipient with ProFlowers.

"I clicked on and purchased flowers based on their picture and that is what I should have received. That is what I was buying. Sending me a box of flowers and a vase is just unacceptable. It would be like ordering a Big Mac from the photo on the menu board at McDonalds and them bringing you a bun, a couple hamburger patties, and some condiments."He further wonders about ProFlowers sending funeral flowers. Does anyone at the funeral ever remove the flowers from the ProFlowers box and arrange them?

Democracy's Demagogues
A demagogue is a political leader who rises up in a democracy by appealing to the emotions, prejudices, and ignorance of the less-educated, poorer segment of a population. Performing as a popular rabble-rouser, he uses rhetorical skills to garner power and promote his political motives. A Demagogue usually opposes thoughtful deliberations, instead using any national crises to advocate for immediate action which advances his long-range goal of increased power to himself. Demogogues demonize political opponents by accusing them of weakness, iniquitous motives and disloyalty to the nation.
Demagogues have appeared in democracies since ancient Athens (i.e. Cleone, Alcibiades) to the present day. Adolf Hitler, the Uber-demagogue who afflicted the entire modern world, was democratically elected by his people. Democracies were instituted to ensure freedom for all and place government authority in the hands of the people. The demagogue exploits democracy's fundamental weakness: that ultimate power is held by the people, with nothing preventing the people from giving that power to a demagogue. The demagogue often displays hypnotic power to appeal to the lowest common denominator of a large segment of the people, the poor, the uneducated and the ill-informed. Charming the masses, demagogues exploit the freedom secured under democracy to gain a level of power for themselves that overrides the rule of law, and undermines democracy.

We Have Seen the Enemy ...
ALL Participants In The Benghazi Cover-Up Should Be Punished including Barack Obama, his entire Administration at the time, and all the staff of: CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post and all major newspapers that refused to report or question the Benghazi cover up.
Benghazi mattered because it was "a question of character." That is correct. On a question of foreign policy or counterterrorism strategy, men of good faith can make the wrong decisions. But a failure of character corrodes the integrity of the state. In the face of overwhelming evidence and testimony to the contraray, the so-called journalists pictured above chose to treat the Benghazi cover-up as a Republican political talking point, not as the massive failure of character at the highest level of government, which it was and continues to be. That is why these particular journalists and others such as Candy Crowley deserve the enmity and contempt of freedom-loving Americans.

Hillary Questions
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s question was “What difference at this point does it make?” Those are words to remember forever, America, and not just about Benghazi.
America's Anti-blasphemy Laws
The First Amendment was the First Target of Obama's Benghazi narrative so that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula would become the First Person in American history to be jailed for violating the new Islamic anti-blasphemy laws. America now has a legal precedent in place. Thank you Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for making it all possible.
America's Ministry of Propaganda and Lies
PULEEZE Everyone! Drop the terms 'Liberal' and 'Mainstream Media' from your lexicon. Those you describe as 'Liberal' are no such thing as they are opposed to liberty unless it involves sex. They are Leftists! They believe in all the "isms" on the Left - Socialism, Marxism, Totalitarianism, Communism, Unionism. As for a "mainstream media" or MSM - it does not exist. There is the Mass Media which is a corrupt media, a state-run media, an Obama Media. The real name of America's Mass Media is the Ministry of Propaganda and Lies.

Mamas - Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Soldiers
They Sign Up to Fight, but instead are sacrificed.
“The hearts and minds of the enemy are more valuable to this government than my son’s blood. This is submission and the cost of that submission on August 6 was my only son.” -- A Grieving Mother of a Brave American Seal speaking at the National Press Club, Washington DC
On 6 August 2011, a Boeing CH-47 Chinook military helicopter was shot down while transporting a quick reaction force attempting to reinforce an engaged unit of Army Rangers in Wardak province, west of Kabul, Afghanistan. All 38 people on board were killed, including 25 American special operations personnel, five United States Army National Guard and Army Reserve crewmen, seven Afghan commandos, and one Afghan interpreter, and a U.S. military working dog. It is considered the worst loss of U.S Military life in the Afghanistan campaign.
"Eighty per-cent of the U.S. deaths in Afghanistan over the past twelve years have occurred during the four years of the Obama administration. 15,000 US soldiers have come home injured or maimed during that same 4-year period" (compared to 2700 during the previous 8 years). -- Karen Vaughn
Read The Conservative Mom about the Press Conference today at the National Press Club, Washington DC and the treachery from American leaders that has cost so many of our young soldiers to lose their lives. President Obama and Vice President Biden, disclosed highly secret information on May 4, 2011, about the Navy Seal Team 6 that carried out the successful raid on Bin Laden’s compound resulting in his death. This disclosure put a retaliatory target on the backs of the fallen heroes, and they were shot down a few months later.
